Installation place requirement
Positioning
• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer MUST be installed on a solidly
constructed floor.
• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not recommended.
• Never install the washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.
A firm, solid floor is even more critical to a front-loading washer than to a top-loader.
If your floor is wood and/or frame construction, you may need to reinforce it. Front-
loaders use substantially faster spin speeds than top-loaders, causing greater
vibration. If the floor is not solid, your washer will vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.

Level floor
Allowable slope under entire washer is 1˚.
Power outlet
Must be within 60 inches (1.5 m) of either
side of the washer. Do not overload the
outlet with more than one appliance.
Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
Minimum installation spacing
• Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on all
sides of the washer is recommended to
reduce noise transfer.
• Most installations require a minimum 4 in.
650
(10 cm) clearance behind the washer.
• Companion appliance spacing should also
be considered.

It is the personal responsibility
